Exeter belongs to an organization known as The Ten Schools Admissions Organization. This organization was founded more than forty years ago on the basis of a number of common goals and traditions among the member schools, with a focus on a cohesive standard of education for enriching the "whole" person intellectually, physically and spiritually. [3] Exeter is especially noted for its Harkness education, a system based on a conference format of teacher and student interaction, similar to the Aristotelian method of learning through asking questions and creating discussions. [4]

Exeter is part of America's earliest athletic rivalry between preparatory schools. On May 2, 1878, Phillips Exeter Academy defeated Phillips Academy (Andover) 12-1 in the first ever baseball game played between these two academies. Phillips Academy (also known as Phillips Andover or PA or simply Andover) is a co-educational University preparatory school for boarding Baseball is a Bat-and-ball Sport played between two teams of nine players each Andover, in turn, defeated Exeter 22-0 in football on November 2, 1878. Football is the word given to a number of similar Team sports all of which involve (to varying degrees kicking a Ball with the foot in an attempt to score a Ever since, PEA and PA have been athletic rivals; they are at the top of the List of high school football rivalries (100 years+). High school football rivalries in the United States more than one hundred years old For a list of other long-standing rivalries see One of Exeter's most memorable football games took place in 1913 with a 59- 0 victory over Andover. PEA and PA have competed nearly ever year in football since 1878, currently Andover leads in the number of games won. [5]

Exeter also has the oldest-surviving secondary school society, The Golden Branch (founded in 1818), a society for public speaking and inspired by PEA's Rhetorical Society of 1807-1820. Now known simply as 'Debate Team,' these groups served as America's first secondary school organization for oratory and prepared students for the communication skills required for success at Harvard University. Oratory is the art of (public speaking In ancient Greece and Rome, oratory was studied as a component of Rhetoric (that is composition and delivery [6] Exeter was originally intended to be a preparatory school primarily used for matriculation to Harvard. However, today, Exonians matriculate to many top universities across America and abroad. [3]

Origins and philosophy

Dr. John Phillips, the founder of Phillips Exeter Academy
Dr. John Phillips, the founder of Phillips Exeter Academy

The Academy was established in 1781 by merchant Dr. John Phillips and his wife Elizabeth. Dr. Phillips was previously married to Sarah Gilman, who was the wealthy widow of merchant Nathaniel Gilman, and conferred onto Phillips a large fortune used for the establishment of Exeter Academy. (The Gilman family donated to the Academy much of the land on which it now stands. ) John Phillips was also the uncle of Samuel Phillips, Jr., who had founded Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, in 1778. Samuel Phillips Jr ( February 5, 1752 &ndash 1802 was very briefly Lieutenant governor of Massachusetts from 1801 Phillips Academy (also known as Phillips Andover or PA or simply Andover) is a co-educational University preparatory school for boarding As a result of this family relationship, the two schools also share an academic rivalry to match their athletic one. [2][4]

Exeter has three mottos noted on the Academy's seal: "Non Sibi" (in Latin)—"Not for oneself"- indicating a life based on community and duty, "Finis origine pendet" (in Latin)— "The end depends on the beginning"- reflecting Exeter's emphasis on hard work as preparation for a fruitful adult life, a third motto, "Χάριτι Θεου" ( in Greek)- "By the grace of God", reflects Exeter's Calvinist origins, of which the only remnant today is the Academy's requirement that most students take two courses in religion or philosophy. [4]

Exeter's Deed of Gift, written by John Phillips at the founding of the school, warns that:

"Though goodness without knowledge is weak and feeble, yet knowledge without goodness is dangerous, and that both united form the noblest character, and lay the surest foundation of usefulness to mankind. " [2][4]

The student body

The Academy lays claim to a tradition of diversity. One of its unofficial mottos– "Youth from Every Quarter"– is greatly upheld today. The Director of Scholarships H. Hamilton "Hammy" Bissell (1929) worked actively to assist qualified students from all over the U. Hammy Bissell (1911-2000 was a long-serving member of the faculty of the Phillips Exeter Academy. S. to attend Exeter. Exeter ( (IPA ˈeksɪtər is a city, district and County town of Devon, England. [7] Currently, 45 states, 26 different countries, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands are represented in the student body of the Academy. Students of non-European descent represent 38% of the Academy. (Asian 24%, Black 8%, Hispanic/Latino 6%, Native American 0. 4%) Male and females each represent 50% of student body. Legacy students represent 13% of the student body. As a result of this tradition, Exeter students come from a broad range of socioeconomic origins and backgrounds. Of new students entering in 2006 (a total of 345), 54% attended public school and 46% attended private, parochial, military, home or foreign schools. [4]

Tenth Principal Richard Ward Day also believed in the value of students studying outside of the town of Exeter, broadening a student's experience and forms of education. During Day's tenure, the Washington Intern Program and Foreign Studies Program were begun. The Academy currently sponsors trimester-long programs in Stratford, England; Grenoble, France; St. Petersburg, Russia; Göttingen, Germany; and Cuernavaca, Mexico. As a result, some of Exeter's alumni may have never even studied on the Academy's campus. [2][4]

Eighty-one percent of the students live in on-campus dormitories or houses. The remaining nineteen percent of the student body are day students from the surrounding communities, and PEA has been co-educational since 1970. Year 1970 ( MCMLXX) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link shows full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. In 1996, a new gender-inclusive Latin inscription Hic Quaerite Pueri Puellaeque Virtutem et Scientiam ("Here, boys and girls, seek goodness and knowledge") was added over the main entrance to the Academy Building to augment the original Huc Venite, Pueri, ut Viri Sitis ("Come hither boys so that ye may become men") to reflect the school's current coeducational status. Latin ( lingua Latīna, laˈtiːna is an Italic language, historically spoken in Latium and Ancient Rome. The Academy also uses a unique designation for its grades: entering first-year students are called Juniors (nicknamed "Preps"), second-years students are Lower Middle (also called "Lowers"), third-year students are Upper Middle ("Uppers"), and the Seniors continue to be called "Seniors". [4]

Harkness and Exeter's academics

On April 9, 1930, philanthropist and oil magnate Edward Harkness wrote to Exeter's Principal Lewis Perry regarding how a substantial donation he had made to the Academy might be used for his vision of a new way of teaching and learning:

"What I have in mind is a classroom where students could sit around a table with a teacher who would talk with them and instruct them by a sort of tutorial or conference method, where each student would feel encouraged to speak up. Events 193 - Septimius Severus is proclaimed Roman Emperor by the army in Illyricum (in the Balkans) Year 1930 ( MCMXXX) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link will display 1930 calendar of the Gregorian calendar. Edward Stephen Harkness ( January 22, 1874 – January 29, 1940) was an American Philanthropist. This would be a real revolution in methods. "

The result was Harkness Teaching in which a teacher and a group of students work together, exchanging ideas and information, similar to the Aristotelian method of antiquity. In November 1930 Harkness provided a $5. 8 million gift to support this initiative. Since then, the Academy's principal mode of instruction has been by discussion, "seminar style", around an oval table known as the Harkness Table. The completion of the Phelps Science Center in 2001 meant that all science classes, previously the only ones taught in a more conventional layout, could also be conducted around the same oval tables. Classes are small, no more than 12 students per class, to encourage all students to participate. These Harkness classes feature heavily in both the school's identity and its day-to-day life

Lectures at Exeter are rare. For example, math is not taught with traditional text books. Instead, workbooks written by the faculty and some students are used. Students complete complex word problems from the workbook and present their work to the class. Students are not given theorems, model problems, or principles beforehand. Instead, these emerge from students' complementary approaches to the assigned problems. Elements of the Harkness method can now be found at academic institutions across the globe, and Phillips Exeter Academy offers 450 courses in 19 subject areas, the student to teacher ratio is 5:1, and a substantial majority of the faculty have advanced degrees in their fields. [8]

The success of an Exeter education is proven by Exeter's large body of students matriculating to top universities. For example, the classes of 2005-2007 most frequently enrolled at the following colleges: Dartmouth, Georgetown, Harvard, Penn, Princeton, Stanford, Tufts, and Yale. Dartmouth College ( is a private, Coeducational University located in Hanover, New Hampshire, U Georgetown University is a Jesuit Private university located in Georgetown Washington D The University of Pennsylvania (also known as Penn) is a private University located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Princeton University is a private Coeducational research university located in Princeton, New Jersey. Leland Stanford Junior University, commonly known as Stanford University or simply Stanford, is a private Research university located in [4]

Endowment

Exeter's endowment as of 5 October 2007 was $1 billion. A financial endowment is a Transfer of Money or Property donated to an Institution, usually with the stipulation that it be invested [9] This is the third-highest endowment of any American secondary school, behind the $9. 0 billion endowment of Kamehameha Schools in Hawaii,[10] and the $7. Kamehameha Schools, formerly called Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate, is a private Co-educational college-preparatory institution in Hawai{{okina}}i The State of Hawaii ( or həˈwaɪʔiː Hawaiian: Mokuāina o Hawaii) is a state in the United States located on an Archipelago in the 8 billion of the Milton Hershey School in Pennsylvania, but ahead of the $775 million endowment of its traditional rival, Phillips Academy.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ( often colloquially referred to as PA (its abbreviation by natives and Northeasterners is a state located in the Northeastern Phillips Academy (also known as Phillips Andover or PA or simply Andover) is a co-educational University preparatory school for boarding Due largely to the successful investments of the school and gifts from wealthy alumni, this school has an endowment of over $1 million per student. [11]

According to the New York Times, Exeter devotes an average of $63,500 annually to each of its students, an amount well above the 2007-8 annual tuition of $37,500. [11] This money is spent on, in addition to operating expenses, maintaining small classes (with a typical student-teacher ratio of no more than 12 to one), computers for students, financial aid, and maintaining two swimming pools, two hockey rinks, the largest secondary school library in the world. Exeter also ensures a high quality cafeteria, serving such meals as made-to-order omelets for breakfast. "[11]

Each summer, Phillips Exeter hosts 650 students for a five-week program of Academic Study. The summer program accommodates a diverse student body typically derived from over 40 different states and dozens of foreign countries.

Exeter's summer school is divided into two programs of study: Upper School, which offers a wide variety of classes to students currently enrolled in high school who are entering grades ten through twelve as well as serving post graduates; and Access Exeter, a program for students entering grades eight and nine, which offers accelerated study in the arts, sciences and writing as well as serving as an introduction to the school itself. Access Exeter curriculum consists of five academic clusters; each cluster consists of three courses organized around a focused central theme.

Exeter's emblems

Exeter is known by two symbols: a seal depicting a river, sun and beehive, incorporating the Academy's mottos; and the Lion Rampant. A beehive is in a general sense an enclosed structure in which some species of Honey bees (genus Apis) live and raise their young The seal has similarities to that used by Phillips Academy Andover—an emblem designed by Paul Revere—and its imagery tends to be Masonic in nature. Paul Revere (bap December 22, 1734 ( OS) / January 1 1735 (NS &ndash May 10, 1818) was an American Silversmith A beehive often represented the industry and cooperation of a lodge or, in this case, the studies and united efforts in support of the Academy. The Lion Rampant is a symbol derived from the Phillips family's coat of arms, thereby making a statement that all of the Academy's alumni are part of the "Exonian family". A coat of arms or armorial bearings (often just arms for short in European tradition is a design belonging to a particular person (or group of people [4]

School colors and the alumnus tie

There are several variants of official school colors associated with Phillips Exeter Academy that range from crimson red and white to burgundy red and silver. Black is also a color associated with the school to a lesser extent. Exeter's official school color is typically generalized as a deep red, a color associated with Harvard University and Exeter's once primary matriculation. The traditional school tie reserved for both the standard school year alumni and the summer school alumni is a burgundy red tie with alternating diagonal silver strips and diagonal rows of silver lion rampants. The alumnus' tie was typically made from a Boston manufacturer also associated with Harvard University neckware. Neckwear refers to various styles of Clothing worn around the (human Neck. [13]

Fraternities

The first Greek Letter Society at Phillips Exeter Academy, Pi Kappa Delta, was formed in 1870, and fraternities long played a significant role in student affairs and formed a strong bond among alumni members. By 1891, four of the Academy's most noted fraternities were established. Kappa Epsilon Pi- known by its skull and laurel wreath badge, was often fashioned as a preparatory order of Skull and Bones. A laurel wreath is a circular Wreath made of interlocking branches and leaves of the Bay Laurel ( Laurus nobilis Lauraceae) an aromatic Skull and Bones is an elite Secret society based at Yale University, in New Haven Connecticut. Principal Fish dissolved all traditional brotherhoods during his tenure, but by 1896, six new societies were chartered along with the continued activation of Kappa Epsilon Pi. However, all of Exeter's fraternities during this period had newly appointed faculty members for strict supervision. By the 20th century, there were five extant societies, with Kappa Epsilon Pi remaining as the Academy's most prestigious fraternity. On June 8, 1946, all of Exeter's surviving fraternities were ordered to close by Exeter's administration since it was believed that all fraternities had outlived their usefulness.
